Hi everyone.
In 4 weeks I'm going to finish the New rules of lifting for woman workouts!
It's been great so far and I have really gained a lot of strength! (I can do 2 pull ups, yay!
)
Now I'm looking for a new program. I think I'll have the time to go to the gym 5 days a week, so this program seems quite interesting. I really want to take lifting to a bit of a higher level, because i really really like it! Ofcourse my only experience with lifting so far has been a bit of stronglifts 5x5 in the very beginning and the NROLFW book. So I'm not sure... Any toughts about this program? Would it be good for me? It seems intense!

Looks like an awesome program and I'm pretty sure you can knock it out. You can lighten your weights if you are concerned with getting through the workout, but you should definitely do it. I get my workouts from bodybuilding.com but may switch to this when I'm done with me current program. Good Luck!0

There is the Ice Cream Strong lifts (which I LOVE the title haha) which is Strong lifts with some accessory work.

I really liked Jamie Eason's Live Fit program. It's free on bodybuilding.com0

maybe you should stick to just 2.5 pound dumbbells and do lots of reps.
HAHA yeah. I like Strong lifts 3x5.
I do a modified 5/3/1 program now.0 -
as above SL3X5/5X5 then after a few months madcow then 5/3/1
5 days is overkill imo0 -

Wendler has written many variations of his program. I have found that I like the Boring but big routine, but doing 5 sets of 10 on deadlifts was too much for my back after my heavy deadlift sets so I do them after my squats, and do my 5 sets of 10 squats after my deadlifts.0 -
Thanks everyone

Kris gethin dtp is brutal but wow so worth it. It will see how much and how bad you want change, challenge yourself mentally and physically. Women should never be afraid to try a man's program, they will be shocked to see how much more definition and sexy curves they will gain from that.0
